INTRODUCTION
The purpose of the present study was to investigate how different color symbol naming is differs with names of colors written in different color. This lab test was done in class of KINS-226 in which 15 class students acted as participants. The main aim of this study is to know the neuropsychological mechanism of the participants including both male and female. All participants are under the age group of 18yrs-25yrs.
This task divided into two parts part-1 is all about knowing the capability of each participants in finding the color of the word rather than written word, part-2 is to know the color of the symbol.
The effect was named after John Ridley Stroop, who published the effect in English in 1935 in an article entitled "Studies of interference in serial verbal reactions" that includes three different experiments.[1] However, the effect was first published in 1929 in Germany, and its roots can be followed back to works of James McKeen Cattell andWilhelm Maximilian Wundt in the nineteenth century.As is true for the cognitive literature in general (cf. MacLeod, 1991), the Stroop effect is a mainstay of research on age-related …show more content…
CogLab’s online laboratory will be used to access an application that creates presents stimuli similar to those found in the original study by Stroop (1935). The independent variable of this study is whether the font colour and the word name correspond or not the dependent variable is participants’ reaction times to the stimuli presented. The methodology of this experiment is similar to that used by Stroop in that in both experiments, participants are presented with stimuli consisting of the names of colours in varying font colours and must respond to them. In contrast to previous studies of the Stroop effect, this study was performed via an online application which automatically records both individual and group
